One of my all-time favorite movies, the perfect blend of comedy, action, and horror.
This movie is a lot of fun, although not scary at all. Highly recommended.

Simply one of the greats. Lam Ching Ying is at his best as the grumpy Taoist master and the practical (i.e. not CGI) special effects and cinematography recall a time in movies that is sadly passed. This is on the of films I use to get friends interested in Hong Kong movies. Deserves to be the collections of anyone who considers themselves fans of the genre.

| Y | Good call, JS. Lam owns the hopping vampire genre with this one. | Mr. Mike |
Very fun movie. A mix of slapstick humor, martial arts and light horror.
If you like Hong Kong slapstick, you should enjoy this. Kind of a "what if the Three Stooges knew martial arts?" Being an American, I never understood the concept of warehousing the undead, but it still leads to some humorous plights. Plus, the lady ghost is gorgeous.
Great movie for its type. My girlfriend had never seen the Eastern type vampires and eventually got into the movie. Very good action and comedy. Great Lam Ching Ying film!
